I keep my little Maltese done just like this with just a little more hair on the tail for a bit of sassy personality. Princess is older now, almost 13, I have decided that I would buy the tools and watch videos so I can trim her up myself. She was also born with that slightly curly hair, if I let it grow, she looks like a little sheep. Because it is so hot here in South Carolina, this is an excellent cut for her and maintenance is much easier. Thanks for your video. Excellent banter as you moved along.!!

Hello :) i’m a first time dog mom with a 5 month old maltese. My friend who also owns a maltese told me that shaving her hair all off will make the hair grow curlier and better. i’m thinking of doing it myself at home (due to covid) but not sure what size of the clipper i should use or how short i should go. My clipper comes with 10mm, 6mm, and 3mm blades (?). Which one should i use?

Her: shaving by the eyes My stress level📈

[@emperorpatrisia5771]

When she held her snout closed, trimmed her nails and those big scissors 😱 I’m sure she knows exactly what she’s doing though!

[@Acinny]

That was a good, patient dog especially with the loudness of your clippers. You always do such a lovely job on your grooms!

[@LoveofGrooming]

Thank you

@@LoveofGrooming Hi, what's the name of the clippers please, and where to buy? Thanks.

This video makes me think about something. I was called over today for a special case. A really old maltese with bad heart failure and epilepsy. Her whole belly is full of fluids (I'm talking very big belly) Her hair was so matted because of the echo gel they used and owners couldn't brush (they are very old themselves) Their usual salon turned them down. (The vet told them the groom had to happen inside their home to reduce stress) They requested me to come over and just shave her all over to make her comfortable for the time she has left. The poor dog was coughing and couldn't stand properly. We opted for no bath to minimize the stress on her heart. This was really sad knowing I will be the last one grooming her, ever. But we gotta do what we gotta do. I can sleep tonight knowing that that poor girl is not matted anymore and the lovely owners were so happy that I could help their baby.

[@shayat859]

I didn’t know how old this video was and I looked at to see when you posted it and it says 2 years ago 🥲 the poor baby is probably running around in her after life with a nice clean cut ❤️🥲😭

[@livinglifeleona]

I always thought little white long haired dogs were hideous but after seeing a Maltese shaved, they’re actually handsome dogs. Cute faces, nicely stocky. If I had one I would get it shaved short.

[@KevinRobin-v3k]

Love the little tips you give when dealing with the sensitive areas. Great video!

[@mirandamartha44]

Thank you! I've been trying to find a video that shows me how to cut my senior dogs hair all over, I love his face having length but at this point I'd rather him be comfortable than me wanting a certain cut on him, he's 12 and I'd rather keep any and all stress off him now. You did an amazing job on her she looks so good!

[@respectthefish4992]

I just shaved my crested tzu successfully thanks to this vid!! thank you 💕

[@jen_tipton]

Once again, I've learned SO MUCH from watching you. You really do the BEST grooming videos. Thank you for showing us how to do it. This time, I learned which blades to use where, how to watch out for the skin under the armpits, that I CAN shave my maltipoo's ears, and how to do the pads. I took a break from grooming my own pup to watch this because I wasn't sure how to do his ears, which are matted. ....going back out now to finish up! Thanks again.

[@sweetsugarbabyray6150]

Great video. I have a very similar dog and always like her to be shaved down when she gets her haircut. I decided to start grooming her myself and it didn’t go as smoothly as I thought this first time. Your tutorial has shown me how I need to do this next time. Thank you!

[@sybillatietz-ot7dx]

Ach,so ein liebes Wesen.Sie war ganz ängstlich,tat mir richtig leid.Glaube nicht,das sieda wo sie lebt viel Zuwendung bekommt.Alles gute meine kleine 🐭 Die Friseurin hat es gut hemacht🎉😊

[@denisesciallo7285]

Lots of good techniques.Thank you for sharing.This video was helpful 😊👍

[@tammyrockman2633]

I have 4 havanese. I always liked the look of short hair dogs like jack rustles but hate the shedding. I keep my havanese clipped short and they are nonshedding so it's pretty great in my opinion.

[@respectthefish4992]

my late doggy Punia had 1 each dewclaw on the front paws and 2 each on the back paws, the pairs in the back looked so silly 💕

[@lori88ish]

She is so cute and so well behaved, I do the same with my Yorkie poo in Spring Thanks for sharing

[@dbok]

Groomers put in a lot of effort, I wish the dog owner would show same sort of attention and brush their dog's teeth most days of the week so they don't have a lifetime of poor dental health.

[@1Yanaisy]

I thought exactly.

[@TamiGoldmann]

Such a good pup! Very cute cut! 😍😍

[@vision1707]

Easy to maintain! I love it.

[@ManymansionsinmyFathershouse]

Woah i just remembered your voice. You are love for pets!

[@user-lg1rf8gx5i]

😊 Thank you, for the tips!

[@davidharvey5672]

Cute little dog. I need some of those cordless clippers.

[@bnmcamp70]

I have same dog and mine bites at the shaver or scissors. Any suggestions around face and snout ?

[@randomfemaleopinion3167]

Am I the only one that loves dogs shaved like that? They look so cute 😍

[@KCV100]

I think so too, I thought I was the only one! I think they look so much better shaved because the hair isn’t in their eyes and mouth and getting dirty all the time :)

[@brendashort3294]

Good job now she looks like a beauty. I love it when small dogs get their winter hair cut off and they have that young puppy cut instead. You did and excellent job and her owner should love her new look. Thanks for sharing grooming video.👍😊😊🐶🐕🐾🐾

[@aprils8725]

She's a beauty. Great work.

[@A-37Bdragonfly]

Excellent job

[@LoveofGrooming]

Thank you very much!

[@cindyyan9851]

Thanks for the video, some good tips! But I would never shave my Maltese that short! Unless he gets skunk! Lol!!

[@LoveofGrooming]

For sure, shave off the smelly hair, lol.

[@yumeofhikari]

Hi thanks for the video! Can I use any shaver on my Maltese? Like Phillips company or any company?

[@LoveofGrooming]

Hi. a clipper meant for dogs is best, however you can try. I have no experience using human clippers on dogs

[@TheCaliKidz]

You make it look so easy🥺I was scared to hurt him😓😢❤

[@mirandastephens4586]

I know this is an older video, but what is the brand and model of the clippers you are using?

[@LoveofGrooming]

hi, in this video I am using the Wahl KM Cordless. I looked for a link, however I couldn't find one. There is a corded version which are cheaper than the cordless, here is the link from my amazon store amzn.to/4fMPp5w

[@sharonmc.5573]

Excellent video Thanks so much for sharing

[@LoveofGrooming]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Rukia8719]

amazing video thank you so much

[@Samisregular]

Thanks for this video, learned some new tricks and the grooming was wayyyy quicker and looks so much better this time around. My dog is nearly identical to her, so I basically did the same thing lol

[@casper_sr3269]

If only my pup would sit this still

[@cdipsingh]

What a super sweet baby!

[@loganross1861]

Is that normal size/frame for Maltese? It looks really stocky

[@ELCUERVO971]

Esa máquina, suena como una moto de alta cilindrada, sin tubo de escape!!!

[@cocoexists]

I’m gonna have to do this to my Buttons, he’s got really sensitive skin and when his hair is long on his face it really irritates him poor baby. But this is adorable and that dog is a trooper

[@ldybugwhite2724]

Hi, I love your videos and your beautiful standard poodles babies. I watched your review on these Wahl KM cordless clippers and you said they were quite. I'm on the fence about buying these because in this video they sound like hedge clippers LOL. I have learned so much from your videos; have two older mini poodles ( 15 and 14) I'm trying to groom at home due to the stress of taking them to a groomer. Still a little afraid to do their faces. Thanks so much for sharing with us. You have a Tender-heart.

[@LoveofGrooming]

Hi, the clipper is not too loud. My camera makes it seem louder. It's a good clipper.

[@ldybugwhite2724]

Thanks so much for your reply. Do you have any tips for tear stains on white poodles? I have a small toy, (5-lbs) Toby-Keith... LOL That gets them really bad, even though, I take him to a professional groomer every eight weeks to have his face clipped to keep it clean.

[@sangeet2266]

Really helpful. Thanks a Mil.

[@jalynefidler5613]

I just stumbled upon your channel. I LOVE your gentleness with your dogs and the way you talk to them and give them reassurance. I have a 10 year old rescue Maltese who I am learning how to groom myself since his groomer of 9 years retired. He HATES to be brushed or groomed or any type of manipulation by me. He had 3 owners before I adopted him and obviously has suffered some trauma. He fear bites me and even though I have groomed my last Maltese (he was so sweet and easy) this Maltese is a challenge for me. Thank you for sharing your skill and knowledge. I appreciate your style. I have watched other groomers who are hard for me to watch. I will be watching many of your videos! Hugs to you! ❤️Jalyne and Pup Jacky boy in Utah

[@MarySmith-bz1ih]

I was so disappointed and upset after picking my 6 month old Purebred Maltese up after being groomed they persuaded my husband to do a shave down sumner cut he looks like a Rat! How long will it take for his beautiful hair to grow back

[@holeshothunter5544]

I was wondering what little dogs look like without the frou-frou. They're almost dogs!

[@Princeton_James]

Can you use human clippers? Also are you just using the clipper itself without any of the attachments like a #1 or #2 etc? Thank up.

[@LoveofGrooming]

Hi, you probably could use a human clipper however I don't have experience with them and not sure if they would cut through dog hair. I use the clipper without comb attachments and use the metal blades with various lengths.

[@tgtg4512]

I find the cordless KM much noisier than the corded one. I don't know why Wahl had to do a KM cordless if they already had Bravura (with much more qualities)...but this is just me :)

[@rigomartinezjr2639]

What kind of hair clippers is that?

[@LoveofGrooming]

Hi, I was using the Wahl KM cordless clippers. They come corded and are less expensive, here is the link. The cordless are sold out. amzn.to/2SPpLFC

[@jordans6299]

You are a awesome groomer. I love how you groom and I learn so much from you.

[@chevaova]

but what about whiskers?

[@leebrendalee]

Thanks have a better idea now and how to cut nails. How come you didn’t clean ears

[@LoveofGrooming]

His ears were clean so I leave them alone.

[@scottl.1568]

I liked the 'before' picture?

[@vpxc]

Are most of the little dogs you work with this agreeable? I've only been looking at videos for Morkies and dogs of either parent breed, but they seem remarkably agreeable to all this stuff

[@blizzequinox2005]

I get so frustrated with the face hair because it’s all up in her eyes I don’t want her vision blocked by her hair haha but I’m too nervous to do it myself maybe I’ll just take her to a groomer

[@Amy-ee9vn]

The clipper is way too loud. You know that dogs hear extremely good? It's a lot of stress... you can find clippers and dryers with 58db on amazon...

[@angelalackmann621]

what a cutiie i like it shaved love the little face and thosw eyelashes

[@moraantoun4260]

Is your dog a boy or a girl

[@Hellavenly]

Today my dogs fur got shaved because it was so matted that we couldn’t just go to a groomer the vat had to shave allllllll her fluf off and the only fluffy part on her body is her head and face

[@LoveofGrooming]

Did you set up a Grooming schedule? Your dog should be on a 4 to 8 week grooming schedule to keep the coat in good condition.

[@allensnoda]

😊❤🙏

[@sweetdreams5072]

It's so mean to shave her down to her pink skin, she doesn't have a double coat :(

[@LoveofGrooming]

Its not mean. It's mean to leave all the mats in the coat.

[@sweetdreams5072]

@@LoveofGrooming Yes it is mean to shave a Maltese , you can cut matts off or use hair conditioner to remove mats. What u do is mean, maybe someone should shave your head when you get knots in your hair.

[@LoveofGrooming]

@@sweetdreams5072 Are you a professional groomer? You clearly do not know anything about grooming. I feel sorry for your groomer when you demand your dogs matts to be pulled out of the skin causing bruises and a possible rip in the skin. Humanity before vanity. I don't torture dogs or hurt them just to please an owner. When dogs are matted they get shaved, end of story. I rewatched my video and this particular dog was not matted. Its an owners preference to have clipped short. There is nothing wrong with shaving a dog, get over it. Hair grows.

[@partyfortwo]

That clipper is so loud.

[@guenechen2]

Muy pelada

[@andreea508]

OMG. Poor dog!!
